I'm sure I am not the tech that most of you guys are but on previous OS installs I've always did a zero fill before installing the new software. I currently have a Dell Inspiron 545, win7 x64 (8g ram) and wish to install win8 pro x64. I've read that you have to leave the previous OS in place in order to install win8, is that correct? Plus, will a window.old file be created with files & programs in it?
